Problems like this are why I long ago abandoned syncing queries with form
control values.
I use global functions instead. For your situation, I would use something
like:
Public Function Jobs_Date(Optional vDate As Variant) As Variant
Static vParm As Variant
If Not IsMissing(vDate) Then
vParm = vDate
ElseIf IsEmpty(vParm) Then
vParm = Null ' default
End If
Jobs_Date = vParm
End Function
In your query, you would put this in the Criteria row for the field:
=Jobs_Date()
In the form, you would use:
Jobs_Date me.lblDate.Caption
me.Combo0.Requery
This works perfectly, and is extremely flexible.
For small Access projects, I do all of my form/query/report synchronization
like this.
